Tips for Styling White Lace Kimono Elegantly
There are three key tips for styling kimono elegantly, especially when it tends to look cute! ☺✏
① Choose a Subdued Obi that Comes in a Set
At Rikawafuku Kimono, we provide kimonos and obis as a set.
Although we offer lace kimonos in the same color patterns,
each one has a different obi tied on it! 😲
If you want to create a mature look, choose darker, subdued colors like deep brown, gray, black, or purple for your obi!
Choose the combination that feels just right for you while looking in the mirror! ✨

② Add a Dark-Colored Embroidered Collar!
Once you’ve chosen your kimono and obi, the next step is the embroidered collar.
The regular (free) collar is white, giving a simple and neat atmosphere.
However, for a mature kimono outfit, adding a darker collar can be a good choice!
This time, we added a dark brown collar to match the obi!
Even with a lace kimono, opting for darker colors can give a mature look, so it’s highly recommended! 🙏💕
For a matured look, it’s also essential not to overwhelm the outfit with too many different colors.
By limiting the color palette, you can achieve a simple and calm atmosphere.
Choose one color to go with white, and select according to your theme! 👍♥
③ Enhance the Mature Look with Gold Accessories! 💎
In addition to the embroidered collar, we also added optional accessories like an obi ornament and a bag!
By coordinating both accessories in gold, you can achieve an elegant and mature kimono outfit! 🥺✨
Gold complements the brown tones chosen for ① and ②, creating a harmonious and unified look. 🫶
In particular, the 👆 clutch-style kimono bag is an essential item for matured kimono outfits!
Well-chosen accessories with a sense of sophistication can enhance your kimono ensemble, highlighting its traditional beauty!
